Follow up to investigations.

Over the span of two weeks, it has been bought to my attention that there are several local paranormal teams that are not following up with their clients.  (4 teams to be exact.)

No matter how busy CVAPI may be, we ALWAYS provide a written report as well as a copy of anything that we found or may have questioned.  We take a lot of pride in the fact that not only did the client contact us, but they opened up to us and shared their stories as well as allowing us in to their location.

To the paranormal teams out there that are not following through, I am more than disappointed.  In my opinion this makes you a "Thrill Seeker", not a "Paranormal Investigator". (There is a difference!) And generally it leaves another paranormal team to clean up your mess for sake of keeping the paranormal investigators in a positive light as a whole.

CVAPI has waited many years to see another team establish the same ethics as us, in putting the client FIRST.  With that said, we would like to give a "Welcome" and a "Shout out" to Historic Paranormal Research.   It has been really nice to have another local team to collaborate with.

To those with a paranormal concern, neither CVAPI or HPR will ever leave you hanging!  In the event, you cannot reach us, or cannot accommodate our waiting list, this is a team we would recommend.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING HPR AND TO ALL OF OUR CLIENTS!

Will my case be on TV?


 The immediate response to this question would be NO.

With so many paranormal shows, and paranormal specials appearing, this is now becoming a common question.  Our intention and focus is on YOUR case, not television.  On the flip side, we have also upped our screening process on cases to make sure that it is not YOUR intention.

I want to take the time to clarify some of this process.  We are indeed contacted by production companies on varying occasions throughout the year.  In addition, we have had homeowner’s submit their own cases to various shows.  So let me see if I can give you some insight as to how this works.

Let me give you an example of some of the questions a production company will approach us with:

-         Do you have a location with a history of….
-         Has anyone ever reported …
-         Have you had an investigation with….
-         Have you ever been in a location like…
-         Do you have a family that has experienced …
-         Do you have any cases that were not paranormal because of …
-         Do you have any footage of…
-         Do you have any families that need help with….
-         Have any families changed their lives because of …
-         Can you back the families claims with evidence of ….

That is just a short list to give you an idea of what we are asked on our end.  Now in the event that we have a case they are looking for, there are questions for the homeowner’s that may appear like this:

-         Are they comfortable with sharing their story?
-         Do they mind going on camera?
-         Are they looking for money?
-         Do they rent or own their home?
-         Will they allow production in their home?
-         Are they willing to travel?

On our end, we are looking at everything INCLUDING the production company that has contacted us:

-         Are they looking for the “worst of the worst” for ratings?
-         What have they produced before?
-         What kind of airtime are they looking at for this case?  (6 minutes or an hour?)
-         Have they ever produced anything with the paranormal before?  (That is a BIG deciding factor!)

In the event that we can make a match with all of these pieces, you will be contacted by either JACKIE or NIKKI.  (No one else portraying as CVAPI!)  Your information is NOT released to ANY production company unless we contact you first.  If you give us the go ahead for them to contact you directly then we will do so.  (For those that are submitting your own cases, we would appreciate the same in return.)

In reality, there is only a SMALL PERCENT that we can make a match to.  We have also had cases to which the homeowner has backed out of filming to which we are completely FINE with.  There is also no time limit as to when these cases occurred.  Recently we filmed our best case from 2009.  However, we have been asked before to return to the location for additional footage.

You may contact us through our website, or email us directly.  Jackie@cvapi.com or Nikki@cvapi.com.

Updates to the website

We have numerous updates that will take place on our website.  Currently you will find that our Video Page has changed.  Due to an increasing amount of mobile devices such as tablets and cell phones, we found it necessary to remove the embedded video and add the links.  This will allow for easier loading to the page.
Also please take the time to subscribe to our YouTube Channel.  This will email you an alert when a new video is uploaded.  In addition, you will begin to find video clips that are not included on the website.

Due to time constraints, we are having problems getting some of our older paranormal investigations put into the YouTube format.  We are currently seeking a volunteer that would be interested in working with these case files.!

It is always left to the discretion of our clients as to if pieces of their investigations may be displayed, and we honor their wishes.  I have many from past investigations that would like to see their info put up.

If you are seeking to join CVAPI on a paranormal investigation, I ask that you join us at Central Virginia Psychic Development & Paranormal Research.  Tentatively our next meeting on the paranormal will take place in February of 2014.

CVAPI is strictly of the paranormal realm with a scientific approach.  For those that have an interest in the psychic realm of things, please join Jackie on her website.  (You will find psychic articles from Examiner posted here on this blog as well.)

Giving a special shout out to "Jaselyn", born November 22, 2013 at 6 lbs. 2 oz., as she holds the title of "Paranormal Investigator in Training."

From Jackie, Nikki and Jaselyn...

Merry Christmas!
